Traditional Chinese medicine

When you have lowered the surging qi, but the patient again suffers from cough and fullness in the chest, use Gui Ling Wu Wei Gan Cao Tang (Cinnamon, Poria, Schisandra, and Licorice Decoction), but leave out the Guizhi (cinnamon twig) and add Ganjiang (dried ginger) and Xixin (asarum) to the formula to treat the cough and fullness.

冲气即低，而反更咳，胸满者，用桂苓五味甘草汤，去桂加干姜、细辛，以治其咳满。

15 Harmful Habits Holding You Back

1. Trying to please everyone.

试图取悦每一个人

I’m going to be blunt with you: You won’t be able to please everyone in life. Truth is, there will be some people who simply do not like you. These folks are quick to judge you, determined to misunderstand you, and perhaps diametrically opposed to you. That’s okay. Let them think and feel that way. It is not your job to convince other people to see your worth. In fact, most of the dissatisfaction these people feel about you is really just their own dissatisfaction with themselves. What you’re experiencing is simply a projection of that.

我要直截了当地告诉你：你不可能取悦生活中的每个人。事实是，有些人就是不喜欢你。他们很快就会对你做出判断，下定决心要误解你，甚至可能与你截然相反。没关系。让他们那样思考和感受吧。说服别人看到你的价值不是你的工作。其实，这些人对你的不满大多只是对自己的不满。你所经历的只是一种投射。

Give up the idea that you should be well-liked. Instead, give stock to the notion that you should remain well-grounded—in your values as well as the relationships that really matter to you.

放弃你应该被喜欢的想法。相反，你应该坚持这样的观念：你应该在自我价值及重要人际关系上保持良好的基础。

Fulfillment can’t be found in another person, so stop expecting someone else to provide it to you.

满足感无法在他人身上找到，所以不要指望别人为你提供。

Look within. The only person you need to please is yourself. So, tend to your own well-being. Focus on you. And quit looking outside for the worth and validation that can only be found inside.

倾听你的内心。你唯一需要取悦的只有你自己。因此，关心自己的健康。关注自己。不要从外部去寻找只有在内心才能找到的价值和认可。

You’ll save yourself a lot of unnecessary worry in the process.

在这个过程中，你会省去许多不必要的担忧。
